Facebook has added a new rainbow flag reaction to its social network for a limited time so users can celebrate Pride month. So if you are wondering how to get Rainbow Flag Reaction on your Facebook Accounts. You are at the right place.

The flag, which has been a symbol of the LGBT community since 1978, joins the thumbs up and heart signs as well as excited, shocked, sad and angry emoji as a way to react on Facebook.

But Facebook's addition isn't immediately available to all Facebook users, which has sparked controversy among people on social media.

The rainbow flag reaction will only appear as an option for users if they like Facebook's LGBTQ page.

The page is the "official LQBTQ resource page for Facebook" and was set up in 2008. It has 14.1 million likes and shares news and information regarding LGBTQ rights and events.

Some users asked if Facebook would consider making the reaction available permanently. It said it is "continuing to bring you the most relevant experiences for the moments you care about" and asked users to provide feedback on its site.
